The Facebook Integrity Department

Facebook has something called the integrity department, and these are the people with the unenviable task of trying to fiis information and radicalization on the platform. They recommended in july 20 20 that the extra weight given to the anger reaction was a huge problem. Their own tests showed that dialing the weight of anger back to zero would stop rage inducing content from being shared as widely. This led to a five % reduction in hate speech, misinformation, bullying and posts with violent threats.
